Notes: This vinegar contains many of the same herbs commonly found in
Herbes de Provence, the dried-herb blend used in southern France for
roasting. Add a small amount to stews, soups or vinaigrettes. Recipe from
"Cooking Class: The Good Stuff," recipes by Dave DiResta and Joanne Foran,
authors of The Best 50 Flavored Oils and Vinegars.
